    Breakfast was outstanding. Simple but flavorful. I had the haggis Benedict and the wife and apple pancakes. If you've never had Haggis, this is definitely a good watch to try it for the first time.

    Waitresses kept getting the order wrong. No apology. 1/6 got his meal after the rest had almost finished. Some of the food was dry as if left under hot lights for some time. Then just before 1.5 hours were up, we were ushered out. Have been before and it was fine but very disappointed as it was a brief meet up with family who live in the Highlands and Islands.
    Loudons FountainbridgeResponded 4 days ago
    Dear Louise, First of all, I apologize that you did not enjoy your experience. We are very well known for our high service level, but this time we didn't deliver. I am really surprised that there was no apology on our behalf, and again, I am very sorry about this incident. Regarding the time you had the table for, for everyone who has a table smaller than 10 people, it is always 1.15 mins as per our T+C. Rest assured though, that we always try to be flexible with that. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to offer that on the weekends because we are extremely busy. We always take any sort of negative criticism on board, and please be assured that we will definitely discuss that with the team. Hopefully, you will give us another chance in the future. Have a lovely day! Kind Regards, Nick

    Food not overly warm, coffee and tea not served hot. Nice people but food was a bit disappointing for the cost.

    Lovely food and atmosphere, we all really enjoyed our brunch. Only downside we weren't made aware of the extra cost for swapping menu items (I asked to change the egg in my breakfast for tofu and charged £1 extra) This should be made clear when ordering. Otherwise everything was great! Chai lattes were lovely too.
    Loudons FountainbridgeResponded on 2 December 2024
    Thank you very much Laura for finding time to leave your positive review! We are delighted that you enjoyed your time with us. I am sorry that you had not been made aware of the extra charge for this item change. Have a lovely week! Louise
